So I joined a new gym last year and was pleasantly surprised. They gave me a smart card to get in and out, that's it, no app, no accounts, no nothing. Well, today I got to the gym and saw the announcement that they are phasing out the access with the smart card and starting to use, you guessed it, an app....

I like to use cash. Used it all the time. But now I've fallen for the bank-card convenience... (especially self-checkout counters).
